I have put the gate LED rings on Tindie now.

How did you get the chevrons to bump when they lock?

@EndlessMason @kicad @Codeberg Watch the video, all done as LEDs.

New video soon, using the infinity mirror.

Pretty nice, maybe edit the sounds from the show over it for emersion purposes?

(Netflix just got stargate so we're been Ludovico it)

[revk@toot.me.uk]

@EndlessMason @kicad @Codeberg Yeh, I have done some videos with sounds added. I don't have my hardware able to make dialling sounds (yet), maybe later.

@revk @kicad @Codeberg
Sounds like it's going to be sick!

Also, the chevron that locks is the one that plays the little animation, rather than it always being the top one that bumps.

[revk@toot.me.uk]

@EndlessMason @kicad @Codeberg It is all a bit of interpretation for a non spinning gate.

I am happy to consider suggestions, but I quite like what I have, obviously.

The LED ring has full chevron LEDs for all positions though, so one can make it do what you like.

@revk @kicad @Codeberg
I mean, it's going to be your home, so it's better that you like it than that some random neckbeard on the internet likes it

[revk@toot.me.uk]

@EndlessMason @kicad @Codeberg Well yes, but I do sell them and give them to friends so worth trying to make it the best I can.

And all published open source as well.

Basically, pull requests and suggestions welcome.

@revk @kicad @Codeberg
holy shit, this would be super fun to wrap around one of those round smart watch screens.

Edit: i bet they don't make LEDs small enough for that though

[revk@toot.me.uk]

@EndlessMason @kicad @Codeberg A tad big for that...

The LEDs are tiny, some at 1x1mm even now (I use 1.5x1.6mm ones).

[endlessmason@hachyderm.io]

@revk @kicad @Codeberg
hey man, they say it's what you do with it that counts

[revk@toot.me.uk]

@EndlessMason @kicad @Codeberg See https://www.tindie.com/products/revk/88-ws2812-led-ring-32mm-ironman-glove/ for a 32mm disk I do as well.

My latest design is 101 LEDs in same space.

@revk
For something like a watch, I guess I'd need a pcb of my own to avoid the chonky stackups of pin headers etc

@revk Ok, this is awesome.
